Mobile Integrated Healthcare Grant

The Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) Grant Program provides support for communities to develop and implement a mobile integrated healthcare program consistent with Indiana Code 16-31-12-4. Eligible applicants are any EMS Commission certified provider organization operated by a municipality. The grant was not funded for FY2026 or FY2027.
For FY2026, the EMS Division is offering a companion grant that has been structured after the MIH Grant Program in statute, but this one is supported by EMS Readiness funding for development of new or expansion of existing mobile integrated healthcare programs.
Funding requests may be for any costs related to a MIH program, including personnel costs, equipment or vehicles. Existing funds for a project may not be displaced by funds awarded through the MIH Grant and reallocated for other organizational expenses.
